Shi Ji nodded, and the two immediately flew towards that mountain peak.

They entered the mountain's interior and indeed found a magical herb.

Shi Ji quickly picked the purple-gold flower, and then she and Lu Yaoqin rushed away.

With a flash of light, the two disappeared.

When they reappeared, they had returned to the ancient road in the starry sky.

Lu Yaoqin's injuries have improved considerably.

"I owe you my life this time. If you ever need my help in the future, you may come to me for assistance."

Lu Yaoqin said to Shi Ji.

"Very well! I will certainly trouble Miss Lu in the future," Shi Ji said, clasping her hands in a fist salute.

Lu Yaoqin nodded slightly, turned and flew away into the distance, disappearing from sight in the blink of an eye.

Only after she had completely left did Shi Ji finally breathe a sigh of relief.

He did not stop and continued walking deeper into the ancient road.

Half a month later, Shi Ji heard the sounds of fighting.

He quickened his pace and soon saw two women attacking a monster.

The monster was a fire leopard, its body engulfed in raging flames.

It opened its gaping maw and spewed out terrifying magma.

Wherever the lava flows, everything is burned.

Shi Ji was shocked. The flames were extremely powerful, and he even suspected that they might be a special divine power created by ancestors from other lands.

If that's true, this fire leopard is definitely not simple.

"Be careful of that fire leopard. Its fire magic is extremely strange, and you could lose your life if you're not careful."

Shi Ji spoke up to remind the two young women.

The two women looked at Shi Ji with surprise, as if they had never seen him before, and were quite astonished.

"Who are you? Are you perhaps a wandering cultivator passing through this area?" one of the women asked.

Shi Ji said, "I am Shi Ji, and I just happen to be passing by here."

"It's Brother Shi! A pleasure to meet you!"

Another woman said with a smile.

This girl is charming and alluring. Although she is not quite at the level of bewitching all beings, she has a fox-like charm in her eyes and brows.

Her name is Su Yuebing, a member of the Su clan, and she is said to be the granddaughter of a certain ancestor.

Shi Ji smiled and returned the greeting with a cupped hand, then asked, "May I ask who you two are?"

Su Yuebing said, "We are all disciples of various immortal sects. I am Su Yuebing from the Qingyun Immortal Sect, and this is my younger sister, Su Yuexi. My sister and I entered the White Bone Ridge to search for the Silver Emperor Mushroom, but we were unexpectedly attacked by this Flame Leopard."

"Although the two of us joined forces to fight the enemy, the Flame Leopard's strength was simply too overwhelming!"

"In the end, they couldn't withstand the Flame Leopard's attack and ended up in such a miserable state! It's truly lamentable."

Shi Ji shook her head with a wry smile.

Su Yuebing said, "Since Young Master Lin is passing by, would you be so kind as to lend a helping hand? After we are freed, we would like to present Young Master Lin with a top-tier magic weapon worth 30,000 points as a reward!"

30,000 points.

It is indeed a huge sum of money.

"No need to be polite. I observed it for a moment, and it seems that the fire leopard is cursed and cannot move for a while. I will set up a few formations later and it will be able to take care of it!"

Shi Ji did not refuse.

Because he thought of something terrible.

The owner of this place.

Will they perish in such dangerous places?
Perhaps that fiery leopard is the ruler of this area.

Shi Ji now wanted to explore the secrets of this place.

This secret involves many things, including the origin of this world and why the people of this world are trapped here.
These mysteries.

Each one must be untied one by one.

otherwise.

Shiji, no matter what

Even at a cost, Shi Ji was determined to try to help Su Yuebing and Su Yuexi out of their predicament.

Shi Ji also wanted to know.

This cave dwelling.

Does it conceal secrets about the ruins of the Celestial Court?
"Then thank you very much for your help, young master!"

The two women bowed to the rock.

Su Yuebing then said, "Young Master, please follow me!"

Shi Ji nodded and walked forward with the two women.

Soon, they arrived at the location of the Flame Leopard.

The fiery leopard roared repeatedly.

It was trapped in place and unable to escape.

He could only roar in anger.

The Flame Leopard spewed out dozens of jets of flame.

Each flame possesses terrifying power, enough to destroy the heavens and the earth.

However, the flames that bombarded the defensive light shield formed by the array patterns had no effect on it whatsoever.

"These array patterns are all of a very high grade. My array skills are still far from reaching the level of these array patterns. It seems that I still need to practice diligently!"

Shi Ji couldn't help but sigh softly.

He then unleashed the Five Dragon Wheels.

The Five Dragon Wheels hovered above their heads, with layers of dazzling runes hanging down to block the flames spewed by the Flame Leopard. Moreover, a strong suction force emanated from the Five Dragon Wheels, which actually sucked in all the flames.

The flames merged directly into the Five Dragon Wheel.

"What a powerful magic weapon! I wonder what grade it is?"

Su Yuebing looked at the Five Dragon Wheel in surprise.

Shi Ji smiled and said, "This item is a quasi-immortal artifact!"

"A quasi-immortal artifact?"

Su Yuebing and Su Yuexi were both taken aback, their expressions changing slightly.

Quasi-immortal artifacts are by no means ordinary things.

Even within the major immortal sects, it is an extremely precious magical treasure.

Such a magical treasure is something that even sect elders and core disciples may not possess.

Shi Ji actually possesses a quasi-immortal level magic weapon; no wonder her strength is so formidable.

Both Su Yuebing and Su Yuexi knew that Shi Ji was extraordinary, but they never expected that Shi Ji was not only extraordinary, but also so wealthy. She could easily take out a quasi-immortal artifact and that would be enough to intimidate them.

After absorbing a large amount of flames, Shi Ji's expression suddenly darkened, and she said, "Let's go quickly, that fire leopard has charged out!"

"What? So fast?"

Su Yuebing and Su Yuexi were both startled.

Shi Ji used her spatial teleportation technique to instantly take Su Yuebing and Su Yuexi away.

The Flame Leopard is indeed extremely fast.

As if sensing that Shi Ji and the other two had escaped, the Flame Leopard pursued them frantically.

"Where are we going?" Su Yuexi asked worriedly.

They were trapped in a canyon, surrounded by darkness.

"Let's continue deeper into the canyon. The temperature here is extremely high. That fire leopard will be burned to ashes in the canyon!"

Su Yuebing and Su Yuexi nodded in agreement, and then they followed Shi Ji as they flew into the depths of the canyon.

They came to the depths of the canyon.

Flames swirl around the area, and waves of heat wash over you.

The power of the flames grew increasingly formidable.

Shi Ji stopped and looked at Su Yuebing and Su Yuexi, saying, "You two step back. This fire leopard is too dangerous. I can't guarantee I can handle it, and it might endanger your safety!"

"We will never be a burden to you, young master!"

Shi Ji said, "Just follow my instructions and don't waste any time!"

Upon hearing this, Su Yuebing and Su Yuexi said no more and flew backward at high speed.

Shi Ji stood still, his eyes fixed on the charging fire leopard.

The fiery leopard's eyes flashed with a chilling killing intent as it fixed its gaze on Shi Ji.

Those were eyes filled with resentment and hatred.

The Flame Leopard had already memorized the stone, and therefore, it wanted to devour the stone to vent its anger.

A sharp, piercing screech echoed through the sky.

Immediately afterwards, a beautiful woman with a graceful figure stepped out.

"Boy, you've ruined my plans!"

Upon seeing this beautiful woman, Shi Ji frowned, for he recognized her.

This beautiful woman once recuperated and rested in the Mountain and River Abode.

Shi Ji nearly lost her life at the hands of this woman in the past.

However, the woman ultimately managed to escape.

I never expected to meet you today.

The beautiful woman looked at Su Yuebing and Su Yuexi.

She said indifferently, "You two get out of here at once, or I might spare your lives!"

Su Yuebing and Su Yuexi immediately showed grief, for this woman's cultivation level was far too profound.

Unless you experience it firsthand, you can hardly understand how terrifying this woman is.

Su Yuebing clasped her hands and said, "Junior Su Yuebing greets the fairy. I wonder if the fairy could spare our lives for the sake of my father being the Supreme Elder of the Tianwu Immortal Sect?" Shi Ji was surprised. He knew that this beautiful woman came from the Xianling Immortal Sect, and Su Yuebing's father was indeed the Supreme Elder of the Xianling Immortal Sect.

This woman knew Su Yuebing's father.

She should have known the identity of Su Yuebing's father, but she still chose to take action against Su Yuebing.

It is clear that Su Yuebing's father and this woman do not get along.

Shi Ji believes that this woman and Su Yuebing's father should have fallen out long ago.

That's why he attacked Su Yuebing.

Such a ruthless woman who turns on you so suddenly is the most frightening.

"Hmph, all the people of the Heavenly Martial Immortal Sect deserve to die, let alone you?"

The woman shouted coldly.

She raised her right arm and slapped Su Yuebing.

This palm strike contained a terrifying, world-destroying power; as the force of the palm strike arrived, the entire mountain range seemed about to collapse.

This offensive is far too powerful and too terrifying.

Suffocating.

"Miss, be careful! This woman is a peak Quasi-Emperor level expert! We must get away from her at once!"

The maid beside Su Yuebing hurriedly reminded her.

Shi Ji hurriedly used her spatial teleportation technique to quickly evade the woman's palm strike, carrying Su Yuebing and Su Yuexi with her.

Although he avoided that palm strike.

But Shi Ji's expression suddenly changed; this woman's palm strike was simply too powerful.

Shi Ji's ability to teleport through the void was not enough to completely evade the woman's attack.

Blood splattered out.

Shi Ji is injured.

Upon seeing Shi Ji injured, Su Yuelin, who was initially terrified, burst into tears.

"Are you alright?" Su Yuebing asked anxiously, her beautiful face full of worry.

Shi Ji shook her head.

"Are you still able to move? Do you need any help?" Su Yuebing continued to ask, her eyes fixed on the woman in front of her.

The woman glanced indifferently at Shi Ji and Su Yuelin, a chilling murderous intent flashing in her eyes.

"Two mere ants dare to think they can save this lowly servant? What a fool's errand! In that case, let's send you on your way!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the woman struck Shi Ji and Su Yuelin with her palm again.

This woman's strength is truly formidable. Even though Shi Ji possesses many powerful magical treasures, she is no match for her at this moment.

Shi Ji felt a sharp pain in her chest.

He spat out a mouthful of blood.

Immediately, Shi Ji embraced Su Yuelin and flew away with Su Yuehan into the distance.

Su Yuelin was so frightened that she trembled all over.

Because Su Yuelin knew very well how formidable that woman was.

Shi Ji said, "Don't be afraid, I will never abandon you and your daughter!"

Su Yuelin's lips twitched slightly; she really wanted to tell Shi Ji.

Her own mother had long since passed away, and she had married her father since then.

The mother was tortured to death.

However, looking at her younger sister in Shiji's arms, one can imagine that Shiji also wanted to protect her sister.

If I were to reveal this matter myself.

It might interfere with Shiji's determination to protect her sister.

Therefore, Su Yuelin did not say anything more.

Shi Ji carried Su Yuelin and Su Yuehan and soared into the sky.

It vanished into the horizon in an instant.

"Chase!"

The woman shouted and rushed into the sky first, then she took out three feathers.

It immediately transformed into three sharp battle swords.

The three sharp swords slashed into the void.

The void shattered.

Then Shi Ji's body fell straight down.

Su Yuelin exclaimed in surprise and flew quickly toward the rocky shore.

The woman stood on a high place, looking down at the rocky islet.

"You can't escape!"

The goddess spoke indifferently.

Shi Ji gritted her teeth and said, "You vicious woman, one day I will find you and I will personally kill you, you wicked woman!"

Upon hearing Shi Ji's curses, the woman's face darkened considerably.

She then walked towards the rocky islet.

"Brother, run! Run!" Su Yuelin cried out.

Shi Ji said, "Don't be afraid, your brother is here! I will protect you all!"

Shi Ji put Su Yuelin down as she spoke.

Then, placing Su Yuehan behind him, he turned around and looked at the woman.

"Boy! I advise you to get out of here! Otherwise, you will die without a burial place. I am an inner disciple of the Heavenly Martial Immortal Sect. I can leave after I kill you."

"You think the Heavenly Martial Immortal Sect is a force I can't afford to offend? That's utterly absurd and laughable!"

"What is the Heavenly Martial Immortal Sect? In my eyes, the Heavenly Martial Immortal Sect is no different from trash!"

Shi Ji laughed contemptuously.

Upon hearing Shi Ji's disparaging remarks about the Tianwu Immortal Sect, the woman's expression suddenly turned extremely ugly.

"You fool who doesn't know what's good for him, today I'll send you on your way!"

The woman sneered and slashed at Shi Ji with her palm. A terrifying palm print instantly condensed and slammed towards Shi Ji. This woman's cultivation was indeed formidable.

As expected of an emperor-level expert, he is truly formidable.

Shi Ji dared not be careless in the slightest and immediately activated the Eternal Azure Sky Technique.

He then unleashed his Devouring Magnetic Field to block the woman's attack.

The woman frowned slightly; her palm strike just now was enough to kill an ordinary Giant God Realm cultivator.

But Shiji easily withstood the attack.

This made her suspicious.

"What's going on? Could it be that he's hiding his true strength?"

The woman murmured to herself.

"Are you questioning me?" Shi Ji asked the woman with a mocking gaze.

He remained indifferent as he approached the woman step by step.

The woman sneered, "A mere Golden Emperor realm cultivator dares to claim dominance over the universe? What a joke! I can suppress you with a single move!"

The woman formed a mudra with her hands, then pointed a finger at the rock.

Amidst violent fluctuations.

That finger seemed to contain some extremely special power, instantly tearing the sky apart.

They charged straight towards Shiji.

That power was truly bizarre and unpredictable.

"The Immortal Stele".

With a thought, Shi Ji sent out the immortal stone tablet.

The stone tablet floated in mid-air, emanating a powerful aura.

"The Immortal Stele? You actually have this in your hands?" The woman's face showed surprise upon seeing the Immortal Stele.

Shi Ji snorted coldly and manipulated the immortal stone tablet to crash into the woman. The woman had no intention of directly confronting the stone tablet.

She turned and fled into the distance.

Where are you going?

Shi Ji's expression was icy, and the immortal stone tablet drew an arc in the void.

He then chased after the woman.

"You all just wait! I'll make you wish you were dead!"

The woman roared viciously.

With a flash of light, the woman vanished into the void.

"Young master, please heal your wounds quickly!"

Shi Ji examined his injuries; fortunately, he was physically strong.

In addition, the Dragon and Elephant Arm provides incredible defense.

That's why he was able to withstand the woman's attack.

If it were any other young cultivator, they would probably have been reduced to ashes long ago.

Shi Ji took out the pill and swallowed it.

He then activated the Immortal Stone Tablet to absorb the medicinal effects and recover from his injuries.

Su Yuelin then helped her unconscious younger sister, Su Yuehan, to her mother's body.

Shi Ji put away the immortal stone tablet and walked to Su Yuelin and her mother's side.

Su Yuelin knelt beside her mother, weeping. (End of Chapter)
